Quite possibly the best smoked Octopus I've ever had, a huge serving that literally melted in the mouth... amazing food, great service and fun full bar with great cocktails.
The views are fabulous too with lots of zoned areas to sit/chill out/dine.

Really nice outdoor setting which is the best thing about it.
Pretty basic Italian menu.
We had calamari and the cured meats to start.
Calamari was decent but the cured meats presentation wasn’t great and was just served with some cut French bread.
